Quarry - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

"The girl's terror was mesmerizing, the menace of the assailant unmistakable. He showed the camera the blade, light reflecting off the serrated edge. Suddenly, the blade slashed, blood flew ..."

It was a movie--but not make-believe. The horror was real, and the spectators knew without a shadow of doubt that their idyllic Colorado mountain resort of Gatlin Pass was both the hunting ground and the hiding place for a ring of snuff filmmakers who preyed on tourists and teenagers.

Newspaperman Gary Colter watched the film to its bloody finale--but his interest was not prurient. His own daughter was mysteriously missing. When a vicious renegade was captured, Colter's search for the monsters did not end. He was sure that there was another man still at large--a man holding his daughter in nightmare bondage.

With his acclaimed novel Prey, C. Terry Cline, Jr., established himself in the first rank of spellbinding storytellers. Now with this blood-chilling exploration of human violence and the forces that shape it, he achieves a new high in tension and action. Quarry is a taut, page-turner about the power of evil and the strength of a father's love that you will not soon forget.

Biografía del autor

C. Terry Cline Jr. was born in Birmingham, Alabama "on a train going out," he always said, because his family moved often during his youth.Terry looked at life as a big adventure and aspired to be a writer from an early age, despite the fact that he hated school. His relationship with traditional learning and his desire to escape authority to his natural environs was captured in Judith Richards's novel, Summer Lightning, set in Belle Glade, Florida. Writing was an early interest, and he was selling articles on nature and short stories by age seventeen. As an adult, and creator of his own advertising and public relations business, Terry once trained a chimpanzee to bowl - a unique way to draw crowds to newly opened bowling alleys. He traveled the U.S. with Judy the "Chimpion" Bowler, appearing on every major TV outlet. The outgrowth of working with a chimp was a magazine, Land Alive, and an educational program on animals offered to schools. At age 37, Terry sold his business to concentrate on writing novels. The first of his ten novels of psychological suspense sold after a three year effort. Cline was called a "master of suspense" by more than one reviewer. He finished his last work, The Cordoba Connection, a few months before suffering a stroke, which resulted in his death in 2013. C. Terry Cline's wife of thirty-four years, author Judith Richards, collaborated with him in the writing of all his works.
